Waiting...

[Javster]

I'm building my first ever gaming PC and I'm really excited about it. I ordered all the parts on Amazon, everything's arrived except for the case and the HDD, which are taking ages. They're still in Belgium as far as I know... The thing that annoys me most is that unlike EVERY OTHER PART, this delivery seems to update the tracker only once a day.

My question is: what do you do to distract yourself from something you're looking forward to?

EDIT: sorry, I meant to post this in the lounge

I usually just catch up on my sleep debt. You can kill massive amounts of time if you can get yourself to sleep a lot.

Reading a good book also helps.

I'll try to sleep, but there are days where I have to get up early, so that doesn't always work...

I would ask for recommendations, but I'd most likely order from Amazon, probably causing a constant loop.

Thanks for the advice!

I usually play games or watch Anime. I'm myself currently waiting for a joystick and more RAM since Tuesday.

I've tried playing games but I'm getting really bored with the ones I have, I tried the Tropico 4 demo and that was quite fun.

I'm getting really bored of KSP tbh...

Playing KSP kills the time for me. Or a book (typically something sci-fi space).

The delivery estimate is tomorrow, but if that's going to happen, why is the package still in Belgium? I can only hope they ship it overnight and that it gets delivered tomorrow, where I will spend the entire day building this computer.

EDIT: It's finally out for delivery! Now I have to wait... I hope they deliver early.

Well it turns out the PSU didn't have 2 PCI-E connectors, so now I have to wait for an adapter to convert 2 Molex into 1 PCI-E... Estimated delivery Sunday. I'm actually using the computer now, except without a GPU.
